Default PCM Update

Is there or was there ever a PCM Software Update for a 2003 SXT?

You only need them done if your car is exhibiting problems solved by the updates. Anyone with a DRBIII could do them.

Is there a list of problems that these updates could fix?

I am experiencing a rough idle and everything has been changed to my knowledge and wallet.

You need to search the internet for TSB's. They will tell you what the updates are supposed to fix. I had the one for idle issues and a couple of other things done, and it didn't fix my problem.

Joe,

If you PM me your VIN I can send you a list of all PCM flashes and the symptoms they were supposed to solve.
